Computer knowledge

It is only a day before Microsoft officially releases the Windows 8 operating system, do you understand the naming of the Windows 8 new user interface? is the new Windows UI? Windows 8-style UI? Modern UI? Or are all rumors unreliable and still called Metro? Well, now almost everyone is confused. WINDOWS8 the name of the new user interface.

According to TechCrunch, from the official guide provided by the Microsoft Spokesperson: When you refer to the user interface, you should say "New Windows user interface (UI)" or "Windows user interface (UI)." When it comes to application, it should be called " Windows apps, or Windows 8 apps.

Windows UI

Are we all clear on this now? In addition to a Windows RT tablet based on an ARM processor, existing Windows apps can run on the Windows8 of the x86 architecture. There is still a lot of desktop software available in the Windows Store application store.

Microsoft's new Windows 8 user interface naming strategy remains mysterious and confusing, with some Microsoft teams still using the old name ("Modern design" is used today when Skype is released).

The biggest advantage of the Metro name is that it emphasizes that the application is for the touch interface rather than the traditional desktop mode. Just as Windows RT and Windows8 confuse consumers with confusion, a series of confusing calls around the "Metro" name is not good for Microsoft in a major transition.
